Sunlight Serenades of Wind & Iron: A Novel of the Great Lakes (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781985802520)

Mackinac Island has always been a world apart from the rest of Michigan and the United States. But even this removed isle could not remain untouched by the brutality and anguish of the Civil War. The war has come and gone, but the wounds it has left on the island and those who dwell upon it are deep and scarring. There is Cordelia, a woman who is burdened with visions of the future. She has lost her father and her husband and yet must remain strong for her son--and for the islanders who depend on her. Florence, a woman who lost both husband and son to battles, who is forced to reinvent herself and find her place on the island. A preacher who tends the souls of the bereaved, and a young man who was not old enough to fight and feels less because of it. And finally, a returned soldier. A man who was said to be dead. He returns, a ghost of the man he once was. How is it possible that he has survived? Where has he been since the war came to an end? Mackinac, an island once so full of spirits and enchantment, has begun to lose its magic. The winds of the mainland have begun to blow in, little by little. Will Mackinac and its magic blow away with that wind? Or is there a bright future gleaming on the horizon?
